I blame processed foods and chemical additives. MSG gets into foods under all sorts of different names. (I read somewhere that MSG turns off the area of the brain that signals when you’re full.)
My skinny maternal grandfather smoked from a very young age and his favorite snack food was pickled pig fat. He lived to 100 1/2.
I know some will call me an idiot (I’m used to it!) but I do think there is something else in play, not simply calories in and calories out. And I think it is probably something else in the food supply, specifically growth hormones. Has anyone checked out the early development of girls now AND the increased bust development? I’m sorry, but that is not simply eating too much and exercising too little.
And, they gain weight in the wrong place for girls. They all have BELLIES. Hello, most girls put fat in other places first!
